Chapter 245: The Roots
"Get out for a while. Silence is good. Ito Masakin said lightly. Break the silence in the study. But that's not a nice thing to say. And the tone is also quite bad.
Yoko Ito smiled. She wasn't worried about anything else. It's just that I'm worried that my father will remain silent all the time. It's not good to open your mouth to say it first.
This silence. It's like a game. And the final ending. It's Yoko Ito leftovers. Because her father, Masaken Ito, spoke first.
"Compared to my father. Still not enough. "Yoko Ito didn't call Masakin Ito her father. Instead, he addressed his father.
Hear your baby daughter call herself that. Masato's face didn't show any expression. But he smiled in his heart. That's what the daughter calls herself. It's completely business-like.
But. That's fine. After all, things have already come out. There is always something that needs to be addressed.
"Something happened. After Watanabeno returned to Japan. I've already said that. Ito asked lightly, "I said to him." Do you have anything to say differently. ”
"No, I didn't. Although I can imagine that. Watanabeno said to his father. It must not be a nice word. But. I think what he said was the truth. I'm talking about my relationship with Xiao Yiyun. Yoko Ito said: "I'm already with Xiao Yiyun." This is an indisputable fact. ”
"Oh. His name is Xiao Yiyun. Masaken Ito diverted from the conversation. I asked this.
Yoko Ito nodded silently. to show an answer. Say no more. Because she knows. His father was not a man who could easily fool the past. Even if it's so occasionally digressive. It will also come back to the main topic. Moreover. Ask Xiao Yiyun's name. It's not a digression.
But. If you talk about Xiao Yiyun in detail next. It seems to be a bit of a digression. The main thing at this time. I should talk about how to solve the troubles we are facing now.
Watanabeno has already come to the door. The matter was put on the table. Although the outside world does not know yet. But no one can guarantee that Watanabeno won't shake this out. Until that time. Itobe lost face. Anyway. It's Yoko Ito who has an affair first. Watanabeno can't say it too much.
Yoko Ito thought of this. I can't help but think of another question. I don't know what my father told Watanabeno. Or what kind of agreement was reached with Watanabeno. Watanabeno didn't spread the word about it in the first place.
See Yoko Ito's pensive look. Ito Masakin said softly, "Do you have a lot of doubts in your heart? ”
"Yes. Yoko Ito came back to her senses. Nodding. said: "Actually, let's really talk about it. There is only one doubt for all. That's what my father thinks. ”
"That being the case. Then I'll explain it to you. Ito nodded. said: "Actually. Since you're not ready to go back to Japan. I guessed you must have your purpose. But. I didn't expect it to be like this. This was a surprise to me. After all. You've always been a good daughter in my eyes. I didn't expect you to do anything out of the ordinary. ”
Hearing his own father is just a very bland narration. And he didn't mean to blame himself. Yoko Ito smiled. He didn't interrupt his father.
Masakin Ito continued, "This time you have been in Amami. Watanabeno's situation in the Watanabe family is a little less optimistic. Although he has been in the limelight in recent years. But. A strife within a family. You can't see the smoke of gunpowder. It can only be inferred from a few signs.
What happened to your earlier engagement with Watanabeno. I'm sure you know it very well in your heart. Itobe and Watanabe were married. It's a great thing for all. Moreover. Watanabeno this young man. It's still good. You are a member of the Ito family. is destined not to be an ordinary woman. This. I'm sure you understand. ”
"Understood. Yoko Ito said, "But." My father didn't know what Watanabeno had told me in Tenami. My impression of this person. It's been completely upended. Right now. I can say that responsibly. The marriage of Itobe and Watanabe. That is, my marriage contract with Watanabeno. It must be lifted. Because his ambition must be preceded by two words. Wolf ambitions. ”
"Oh. "I heard my daughter say this. Masaken Ito was interested. "Tell me." What did he say to you in the heavenly sea? ”
"He went to Tianhai to find me. In the case of knowing what happened between me and Xiao Yiyun. Said something he didn't mind. Yoko Ito laughed miserably and said, "He said that I would go back to Japan with him to get married." He acted as if it hadn't happened. Father. Your daughter is not a fool either. Such a simple thing is completely conceivable. If I really go back to Japan and marry him. The early stage of married life is still guaranteed. Because he needs to use the power of Itobe.
But. Wait until he has mastered Watanabe. Become the helmsman of Watanabebe. Took control of the Watanabe family. At that time. Your daughter will be unlucky. ”
"When you're full-fledged. Ito nodded. Narrowed his eyes slightly.
All of a sudden. Both Masaken Ito and Yoko Ito fell silent. The atmosphere in the study. It became depressed again.
Long. Masaken Ito sighed. said: "I'm afraid." He really came to the day when he was full-fledged. Even our Itobe will swallow it. ”
"It is for this reason. That's why I said the marriage contract with Watanabeno. It must be lifted. Yoko Ito said categorically. Seeing his father, he showed no signs of anger. Yoko Ito asked again, "I'm curious. What did he tell you when he came back? What did you tell him again? It made him silent. I didn't publicize it. ”
"He came with a look of rage. Masato-Ito smiled. said: "After telling me all this. I'm also angry. I almost want to call you right away. But. He finally made a request. Let me say yes. Otherwise, he would have publicized it. I promised him. So he kept silent. ”
"What a request. Yoko Ito asked immediately.
"Help him take control of Watanabe. He's going to borrow the power of our Itobe. Masakin Ito said, "He will arrange everything." When the time comes. We just have to help. None of the responsibilities are assumed. ”
"You take his word for it. Yoko Ito asked suspiciously.
Masaken Ito smiled. said, "If I believe him." I won't let you take that Xiao Yiyun back to Japan. ”
This is after the father and daughter met. Masato's smile for the first time. Yoko Ito saw her father's smile. I already knew that my father didn't mean anything angry at all. I smiled too. Asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
"I haven't thought about it yet. But. This matter must fall on Xiao Yiyun. He is the root of all troubles. Ito said with a frown.
After saying that. Masaken Ito looked at his daughter with a loving expression. said: "I am just such a daughter as you." You will never be wronged. Watanabe was too anxious. You're in Tianhai during this time. He came to me more than once. Asking to marry you.
This disgusted me. And. Judging from the fact that he was in such a hurry to complete the marriage. His current situation must be very unoptimistic. Even controlling a family requires the help of external forces. I'm already a little disappointed in him. His monkey face is anxious. It's disgusting.
But. It is a fact that you have a marriage contract. I also can't ask for no reason to break the marriage. So. I've been procrastinating on him. He couldn't wait any longer. I'm going to look for you in Tianhai in person. ”
An old fox like Masaken Ito. Things are seen very thoroughly. He himself is in Japan. Watanabeno what's the situation. I only saw some clues on the Watanabe family's side. He can speculate. In Watanabeno's not very optimistic situation. Watanabeno wants to get married as soon as possible. In addition to wanting to use the power of Itobe. There is no other reason.
Although it was for the sake of profit, there was a marriage contract. But what Ito wants to see is a strong alliance. If Watanabeno wasn't so anxious. Masatoshi Ito might be able to help. Because he was really thinking about it. Even if it's a marriage of interests. It also involves his daughter's lifelong marriage. He couldn't be so ruthless. He didn't think about his daughter's future happiness at all.
Young Toshihiko. Comer. Every one who is a father. will like such a son-in-law.
It's just that. If it's too much. It will cause people to be disgusted. This is the case with Watanabeno. It has already aroused Ito Masaki's disgust. If he is patient enough. Even in the face of difficulties. Nor does he ask for consummation of marriage. With the help of the power of Itobe, such obvious words. It's highly likely that Ito will help him.
"Since Dad has already planned to solve this trouble. Xiao Yiyun is also the root cause of solving the problem. Why don't you see him yet? He was not allowed to live in the house. Yoko Ito asked with some dissatisfaction.
Masaken Ito smiled. He tapped his finger on his daughter's forehead: "You." Clever I. Confused for a while. In such sensitive times. I let him live in the house. What would Watanabeno think? Once he gets the word out. But it embarrassed Itobe. It's hard for us to do that too. ”
After saying that. It's as if Ito has remembered something. "That's right." You tell me the details of Xiao Yiyun. I have to find a way to solve this problem. ”
I heard my father's words. Yoko Ito hesitated. It seems that I did something wrong at the beginning. Push Xiao Yiyun on this path. It seems to be wrong. And now. There is no regret medicine to take. I can only tell my father the truth......
